Chapter 431: Chapter 431 I’m Not an Old Man

Viscount Li took a sip of the plain water in his hand and said indifferently, "I remembered what you ordered last time we had dinner."

"So that’s why..."

Tong Mo nodded, although she was curious about why he would remember her preferences, she eventually couldn’t be bothered to ask and continued to eat voraciously.

Across from her, Viscount Li was somewhat tangled, seeming to have something to say but unsure how to bring up the topic.

Actually, he had a purpose for coming to school to see her today.

He had heard that she was recently campaigning for a boy at school, even going so far as to spend a lot of her own money for him.

In truth, that wasn’t the case. Mengmeng ran short of money while campaigning and buying things, so she borrowed some from Tong Mo, and she paid it back the next day.

So, you can’t take seriously what you haven’t seen or heard firsthand!

However, Viscount Li didn’t know this; all he understood was that she was very keen on a boy!

Seeing that a "green hat" was looming over him, Viscount Li finally couldn’t help himself and blurted out, "I heard your school is holding a student council president election?"

He was holding a cup of plain water, casually sipping it as if he was just raising a casual question.

Yet, internally he felt extremely perturbed.

"Yeah, right! They’re electing a student council president, but how did you know?" Tong Mo’s face lit up with a smile, her eyes nearly crinkling with glee.

When Gu Zhihan gets elected president, that will be the time for her, Tong Mo, to get her official title!

It was just like in ancient times, when those who had supported the emperor were rewarded after his ascension.

"Are you really that happy?" Seeing her genuinely happy for another man in front of him made Viscount Li’s face turn green with irritation, and instead of answering her, he retorted.

"Of course, I’m happy!"

Who wouldn’t be happy about getting an official title?

She said this without a second thought, directly aggravating Viscount Li, who clenched his fists, his eyes darkening as he managed to say, "Do you like him? Or does he like you? Is that why you’re helping him campaign?"

"Pfft!" Hearing his speculation, Tong Mo, who had just taken a sip of peach juice, sprayed it all over his face, shocked, "Are you crazy? What nonsense!"

Tong Mo couldn’t help but slam her hand on the table, beginning to freak out.

"Gu Zhihan is my best friend’s boyfriend!"

"I’m telling you, you shouldn’t eat nonsense, and you shouldn’t spout nonsense either!"

"I’m not interested in other people’s boyfriends!"

"So you mean to say, you are interested in single men?" Viscount Li pulled a handkerchief from his suit pocket, wiping the peach juice off his face.

Although his face was sprayed with juice, Viscount Li was not only not angry, but he actually felt quite pleased.

Because...

He had learned the truth.

He wouldn’t have to torment himself over this issue every day at work anymore.

"Mind your own business!" Tong Mo, seeing him asking all sorts of questions, rolled her eyes at him and continued eating, "No matter who I like, I would never like an old man like you!"

"I’m not old! I’m only twenty-eight, and if you count by the actual years, I’m only twenty-seven!" In an attempt to prove he wasn’t the old man she was referring to, Viscount Li unexpectedly went into such detail.

Tong Mo couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him, "Even if you are twenty-seven, you’re still an old man!"

However...

It seemed he was the same age as her fiancé, which was quite a coincidence.
